Publishers Text

FRANCES BISSELL has been described as one of the best private cooks in Britain - her recipes are deliciously innovative and tempting, yet can be prepared easily and be adapted to the freshest ingredients available on the day. Using only the best produce, and cooking with as little fat, sugar and salt as possible, Frances Bissell skillfully blends the old and the new, using familiar food in original ways and modifying classic recipes without loss of quality. THE PLEASURES OF COOKERY is a personal collection of recipes that includes recently inspired ideas as well as meals recorded in Frances' kitchen diaries over a period of fifteen years. Written in her practical, easy-to-follow style, the recipes include such enticing dishes as wild mushrooms in blackberry vinegar, cod in orange and passion fruit sauce, and pomegranate sorbet. The book is enlivened throughout by Frances' personal recollections of the people and places that have influenced her cooking.
